An eight-episode revival of the Emmy-winning ABC sitcom is in the works, sources confirm to The Hollywood Reporter.

Series creator and star Roseanne Barr is onboard to return, as are John Goodman and Sara Gilbert, with the latter spearheading the project. Gilbert will executive produce with original series exec producers Barr, Tom Werner and Bruce Helford.

The revival is currently being shopped to networks, with Netflix among the suitors bidding on the project.
